This part of The Pixel Project Guides section is a starting point for empowering you as an individual with the intervention and support methods that you can use should you discover that your mother/wife/sister/daughter/niece/cousin/friend/colleague is facing gender-based violence.

We have provided 3 separate Guides sections for your reference (and which you can also download in PDF format):

The guides here are meant to be a starting point, especially for those facing such situations for the first time. They are by no means exhaustive and you will be able to access more specialist online sources here.

You may not be able to stop the violence in time but you can help the woman heal, escape or even get redress.

You may be just one individual but your help will make a difference in the life of a woman facing gender-based violence – you may even save her life.
